The construction of the Tulsa Roughnecks 2016 roster added another piece Tuesday with the announcement that forward Kyrian Kidd will return for a second season with the club. Kidd made his professional debut with the Roughnecks last season and was often used as a second-half substitute to provide an offensive spark.

“We are excited to have Kidd back for a second season with our team,” said Tulsa coach David Irving. “His pace and athleticism give him elements that a lot of players don’t have. 2016 will be a key season for him as he is capable of becoming a top professional striker.”

Kidd appeared in 24 USL regular season games for the Roughnecks last year, with 20 appearances coming as a substitute. He scored five total goals, including what proved to be the match winner in a 2-1 win over Oklahoma City in the final regular season game of the year. Four of his five goals came in the second-half of the season.
The 23-year-old becomes the ninth player officially signed for the 2016 season. More player signings are expected to be finalized in the near future, with other announcements coming soon.
